Mr. Lu Xun once said that tragedy is to destroy something of value for people to see. The reason why A Dream of Red Mansions has enduring artistic charm is not only because it depicts vivid and plump female images, but also because it describes the short lives of those beautiful and exquisite girls in the Red Chamber who are suppressed or even strangled with delicate realistic brushwork.

There are many images of girls in A Dream of Red Mansions. In the fifth episode of Jia Baoyu's Dreaming in Wonderland, Baoyu once said to the police, "But now there are hundreds of girls in our family." Except for those maids who are unknown or disappear after only one or two visits, only those girls with famous surnames occupy a place in the book, and the number is quite large, which often makes new readers dizzy. But no matter who they are, the fate of these daughters has not changed because of their different identities. No matter how different the process is, the final outcome waiting for them is only destruction. In addition to the well-known tragedy of Baodai, ladies-in-waiting, large and small, also wrote their own sad songs of life in different forms.

First, climb the branches and toss and turn to survive.

Faced with the same life tragedy, the girls in the Red Chamber made different choices and posed different postures in order to change their fate. In order to have a place to live in the Grand View Garden of "360 days a year, the wind and the sword press each other in first frost", the first thing these beautiful but delicate girls think of is to attach themselves to the authorities in the garden and borrow their branches to find a place to live. From a certain point of view, all the girls in the Grand View Garden live under the influence of others. With the love of her grandmother, Daiyu found a place to live in Jia's family. Tanchun must also be attached to Mrs. Wang in order to keep the honor of Third Miss. Even if she is as smart and tough as Xifeng, she has to please her grandmother carefully to keep her status. In the grand view garden with many factions, different girls have different attachment objects according to their status and opportunities, but no matter who they choose as their support, their ultimate fate is still the same.

According to the standards of the feudal ruling class, the most promising maid in the Grand View Garden is naturally attacking people. The fragrance is intelligent, gentle and considerate, and everything is appropriate, both supple and delicate. More importantly, xiren is very virtuous and good at being a person. The author also called Xiren "virtuous Xiren", which was in line with the primary evaluation standard of women in feudal society. When the book first mentioned xiren, it was said that xiren was a bit silly: when serving grandma, there was only one grandmother in my heart; Today, with Baoyu, there is only one Baoyu in my heart. These characteristics of xiren are actually the performance of her attachment to the authorities and seeking a place to settle down. She is loyal and serves her master wholeheartedly, but changing her master's loyalty has no effect on her. In other words, she is not loyal to Baoyu, but to her master. She doesn't care who her master is. Of course, following a master like Baoyu is naturally her best choice. In xiren's heart, he also has his own ambition-to climb the high branch of "father's mother's sister". In order to achieve this goal, xiren served Baoyu wholeheartedly. From the sixth description of "Jia Baoyu's first sexual experience" in the book, readers can clearly see that Xiren had actually become Baoyu's concubine at that time. As a servant girl, the biggest possibility of xiren is to be assigned to a page with similar status and will never change his status as a slave. Therefore, you can change your identity from the enslaved object and become the concubine of a master of Jia family, especially Mr. Bao's ordinary wife. This is the best ending that Xiren can think of and get. Therefore, serving Baoyu wholeheartedly and becoming Baoyu's aunt is the limit that Xiren pursues. All the actions of Xiren, including the exhortation to Baoyu and the tip-off to Mrs. Wang, led to the "beautiful girl love", which originated from Xiren's pursuit.

Also a servant girl around Baoyu, Xiaohong was not as lucky as xiren, and she was favored by Baoyu from the beginning. It was not until the twenty-fourth time in the book that Baoyu recognized her as a member of his Yuan. On the one hand, this is because girls have their own strict rules in this hierarchical aristocratic family. The maids in Yee Hong Courtyard are divided into three classes, and most of them are waiting outside, not to mention waiting beside Baoyu, even Baoyu can't enter his room. The woman in episode 58 was reprimanded by Qingwen and others for going to a place where girls can't go. On the other hand, it is because the older girls will never allow Xu Xiaohong and other little girls to get close to Mr. Zhong and forget them. Xiaohong poured tea for Baoyu and was scolded by Qiuwen and Bi Hen. (Si Er (Xiang Hui) was finally fired, largely because he was appreciated by Baoyu, so he was jealous and even made trouble in front of Mrs. Wang. Even Baoyu wants to boss Xiaohong, so he has to think carefully and consider the feelings of xiren and others.

And this Lin Hongyu turned out to be beautiful and smart. The servant girl gave it to Mr. Bao, and she had some ambitions to climb up. Baochai, who has always known people, also thinks that Xiaohong "used to have big concave eyes and was a tricky and eccentric thing." . However, a bunch of girls in Yi Hong Yuan are very smart, and there are beautiful maids like Qingwen who get in the way. How easy is it to win Baoyu's attention and appreciation? When she realized that it was impossible to change her position by Baoyu's appreciation, she decisively changed the object of flattery and turned to declare her love to Xifeng. It was an accidental opportunity and she was appreciated by Xifeng by virtue of her intelligence. Qingwen said to her, "What a strange way! It turned out that he climbed up the tall branch and ignored us. I don't know if I said a word or two, but my son's name is true, so I'm so excited for him! This semi-bitterness is nothing; After that, you should be obedient! -If you have the ability to leave this garden from today, you can only count on Gao Zhi! " Although these words are mean, they also truly reflect Xiaohong's desire to climb the high branches of Xi 'an and throw herself at him. In addition, Xiaohong knows how to seize the opportunity to create a more sincere and satisfactory marriage for herself. In her opinion, although it is not appreciated by teacher Bao, it is also a good choice to be valued by teacher Yun.

Throughout A Dream of Red Mansions, in order to find a foothold, there are not a few maids who try their best to please their masters. Whether intentionally or unintentionally; Whether their means are right or not, in essence, this is just a choice they have to make in order to survive. However, in the declining feudal society, choosing to cling to this decadent and declining feudal class can only decline with this class in the end.

Second, break off feelings and never want to suffer for a lifetime.

Women in the Grand View Garden, regardless of their status, have the same depression in their hearts. Li Wan, a widowed young man, takes care of Miaoyu who lives in Jia's family and Xichun who finally enters buddhist nun to protect herself. In order to survive, all of them have to give up the innocence of all girls and bury their lives in an empty loneliness.

If even your wife can't escape such a tragic ending, how can those enslaved and oppressed maids change their destiny with their meager strength? Most of the maids in the Grand View Garden are beautiful in appearance and brightly dressed. When granny Liu first met Pinger, she thought it was Xifeng, which showed that she was well dressed. Plus Baoyu tore the fan just to smile at Bo Qingwen. This kind of ostentation and extravagance of life is beyond the reach of ordinary Jingmen Buchai and Xiaojiabiyu. However, a girl living in such a gorgeous and luxurious environment can't change her fate in the end, and she can only go with the flow like a fallen flower and suffer for a lifetime.

What Jia's maids are most afraid of is not the master's beating and cursing, but the master's driving them out of the house It is often unreasonable for the masters of the Jia family to expel the maids. Even Baoyu kicked her out because Xue Qian gave her a bowl of maple syrup tea. Even Baoyu, who praised his daughter as "flesh and blood made of water" and claimed to be "happy to see women", regarded "expulsion" as the most threatening means to the maids. Therefore, the attitude of other authorities in the Jia family towards the maids is also evident, and the phenomenon that the maids are often driven out in the book is also reasonable.

Actresses in pear fragrance court, originally bought by Jia's parents on the occasion of mothering, were later assigned to various hospitals as maids and belonged to a group of enslaved and oppressed people. Their humble status doomed them not to get the happiness they sought. For them, love is a moon in the mirror and a flower in the water. But at that time, they could still live in the Grand View Garden, depending on their owners. However, it is impossible for the respected ruling class like Mrs. Wang to allow these smart and individual girls to stay with Baoyu for a long time, so after a stormy raid, these girls still can't escape the fate of being fired.

Young officials who foolishly draw the word "Qiang" on rainy days, lotus root officials who are infatuated with burning paper and miss their old friends, and square officials who are handsome and have great personality, such a beautiful life, but even the tiny desire to get a place in the Grand View Garden can not be satisfied. Because I am afraid of marrying any page casually, I have to bite my teeth and "twist my hair as a nun." Such a fresh life, such a beautiful soul, finally had to accompany the "green light ancient temple" and die alone.

The life of the girl in the red chamber is not in her own hands. For Jia and his son, women are just playthings. If they are happy, they will spoil them, and if they are tired, they will abandon them. Those beautiful and exquisite women, although "colorful", can only "pour all their broken wells and walls" in the end and end their lives in loneliness.

Third, despair and death from injustice.

The beautiful and luxurious Grand View Garden built in A Dream of Red Mansions seems to be "a land of flowers, warmth and wealth", but in fact it is a hell on earth of "360 days a year, swords and shadows, mutual pressure and hardship". This dirty place with only "two stone lions at the door are clean" has ruined many sincere loves and buried many fresh lives. The dead are gone, and the living are still struggling to survive. However, in this grand view garden, which is full of flowers on the surface and hypocritical and cruel in the heart, the demands of the girls in the red chamber can not be met, and those originally bright lives gradually dim under the oppression of those in power until they are extinguished.

Jin Chuaner, a beautiful maid around Mrs. Wang, was kicked out of the palace by Mrs. Wang for saying a few unreasonable jokes with Baoyu, and she jumped into the well in shame and indignation and died. Among these pretty maid, Jinchuan was the first to die. Since then, the tragedy of Jia Jia Ya Jia has been revealed more deeply. Yuanyang who died with grievances; A chess game that hits the wall and dies; Pursue Qingwen who died of shame and anger; Under the oppression of feudal ethics, the life that should have been like summer flowers gradually withered.

Qingwen was a maid given to Baoyu by Grandmother Jia. She is better than others and is the first person in Baoyu's heart. But such a clever maid can't escape being kicked out in the end. In A Dream of Red Mansions, there are not many pretty maids who are expelled from the Grand View Garden. Jin Chuaner is one, followed by Qingwen. The reason why these two maids were driven out was because Mrs. Wang thought they were "foxes" and "good men and women, you have taught them badly." For Mrs. Wang, Baoyu is the only support for her to settle down in the Jia family. When Baoyu was beaten, he cried so miserably, but he shouted, "I don't care if you (Jia Zhu) live or die a hundred times." It can be seen that she only cares about a son who can guarantee his wife's identity, not Baoyu himself. Of course, we can't deny her affection for Baoyu's mother and son. But as a mother, at the moment when her own son was flogged, she could even think of killing Baoyu, and her wife's identity was in jeopardy. It is doubtful how much affection she has for Baoyu. Similarly, in order to maintain her identity, Mrs. Wang also asked Baoyu to grow into an "economic man" in line with feudal ethics. Therefore, getting rid of those maids who have charmed or may charm Baoyu is the first measure taken by Mrs. Wang. From this point of view, Qingwenhe was executed not so much because of Mrs. Wang's cruelty, but because of her last resort to safeguard her position. Ironically, of course, it is Qingwen who is really having an affair with Baoyu, but it is her default "menstruation" candidate. This is a mockery and mockery of the ignorance of the ruling class, and it is also a lament for Qingwen's life tragedy of "the moon is hard to meet, and the clouds are easy to disperse".

The girls in the Grand View Garden, whether they are noble families or maids; No matter whether it is a rebel struggling to break free from feudal shackles or a martyr prostrating himself in ethics, he can't escape the tragic fate of being a sacrifice or a victim. The daughters of the Red Chamber experienced the hardships of life, and finally had to taste the pain of death alone. Their weak bodies have to endure hardships such as marriage, becoming a monk, widowhood and even death. The Grand View Garden has become a veritable "grave" of "flowers cry" and "Wan Yan mourns together". Here, the girls in the Red Chamber sang a sad song with their sad lives, which left endless grief and grief for future generations.
